| I've read the manga before and this gives Aharen-san wa Hakarenai vibes, at least for the main girl. Kashiwada and Oota definitely has chemistry though regardless how different they are. I think that's kind of the point of this anime..to pair up with two constrasting characters. The school life segments including the pool cleaning part were cute imo. |

| Mangaka Fuyu Azuma's series that's just like Aharen-san wa Hakarenai in every bit of the inspiration, it's the banter that really makes it the way it is as a rom-com. Hashimero's OP is kind of good in spots. I mean, the title really gives it away of the relationship between the inexpressive Kashiwada and expressive Oota, where the latter tries to throw the former's game off at everything she does, like changing the contents of green tea with vinegar, all while Kashiwada maintains her monotone expression to piss Oota off all the more. This only causes Oota to rant as his friends of Sada and Tadokoro to need their help to "take down" the mysterious girl, though it only causes them to notice her expressionless behaviour all the more. From the class to the cleaning of the school's pool, trying to distract Kashiwada (though she's low-key interested in things like the sighting of a tanuki outside the school), the sad part is that she always does things alone, only for Oota to interfere (though to his usual failure) to play with his friends, and NGL this is fun to Kashiwada too, despite being scolded by the teacher on-site for their antics. Sangatsu no Phantasia's ED is also low-key good, I always love their songs dearly. Rom-coms this Fall are looking great now. I'm expecting more from this cute show. |

| Kashiwada-san vs Aharen-san, when?! |
真姫ちゃん！ 何が好き？ トマト よりも あ･な･た♡  |
| This was OK it seems abit like Aharen san. |
| Kashiwada is probably extremely happy Oota is playing games with her. Oota one friend pointed out how Kashiwada is by herself, so Kashiwada is probably extremely happy to hangout with Oota. Very cute first episode I like the premise so far and the short funny end segment at the end. |
aww look how happy she is |
| This is so silly, I kind of like it. I would say the animators working on this have it easy except Oota-kun makes up for Kashiwada's lack of expression :D |
| I see a lot of comparison to Aharen-san which is totally valid but I got a sense of Karakai Jouzu Takagi-san too. Seems like it’ll be a fun little show, and the theme song was pretty nice. Want to see more of Sangatsu Phantasia, seem like instant hits every time! |

| Oota is straight up bullying Kashiwada lol Kashiwada is pretty like a doll with her expressionless face. But she's not really expressionless at all. She does laugh and seem happy seeing Oota's antics. Everybody do notice that. Kashiwada is lot like Aharen Reina. Oota is annoying by being too expressive but him being contrast to Kashiwada makes the show interesting. |
| 6/10 The art is average at best but the music was fun, the plot was more or less boring at the start but set into a good mood as time passes, or else this anime would be pretty bad... the gap moe of the girl saved the day, I'd say. |
| I think the author misunderstood expressive/emotional with just plainly annoying/noisy, those are quite two different things, shouting every 10 secs is not enterteaning for me tbh also some jokes are close to just being bully lol, the last part of the episode was fine |
| This was cute, premise alone its a pretty messed up anime when you think about it since its basically about a guy bullying a girl with presumably no friends. But naturally the way its portrayed is nothing like that. Kashiwada clearly likes the attention from Oota and they have a really fun dynamic so far. Plus while simple the animation/art style is really pretty. Simple but pretty plus the opening songs pretty good. Great first episode |
| I was thinking Aharan San as well for Kashiwada. Don't they play old maid in that series as well at some point? But to be fair, it happens a lot in animes. Teasing Master Tagaki San as well with the way he can't best her. |

| Having her drink vinegar seems to go a bit far though. |
| Pretty good first episode, I see the potential. |
| Why is that entitled boy so angry all the time? He's chasing crows (who are known to be vindictive), and plays juvenile, mean spirited pranks on the girl he obviously has feelings for. It's also unclear why the Aharen-san copy likes him at all. Even his friends try to reason with him, but he annoyingly goes on and on with his mayhem. I feel sorry for her, and feel annoyed by this show. |
| An anime where one of the lead characters is bullying the other lead because she doesn't conform to his narrow views. NEXT! |
| This was too dang wholesome, a cute couple and a pair of bros. |

| @_MushiRock11_ The difference is that Kashiwada's phlegmatic nature is more focused on memetic facial reactions and punchlines, while Aharen's phlegmatic nature is more built on memetic interaction and male lead reactions. @dragynfaerie Lol, what? This show is about an emotional guy helping a phlegmatic girl open up by trying to evoke an emotional response in her, while she teaches him to be more sensitive and receptive. There's no bullying or even teasing here, it's a meme-driven, wholesome comedy. |

| Looks really cute, I already like Kashiwada a lot lol |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| This is just a walmart Aharen and not funny at all |

| @Reecey91 I feel like it's a mix of Aharen-san is Indecipherable and Teasing Master Takagi-san. |
| I like to watch some anime, I like to talk about some anime, I dislike wars over some anime, but more than anything I love to live my life, anime is an enjoyable and entertaining addition onto my life but it's not my whole life. |

| @GangsterCat Nah it's not quite that bad, not as good as aharen so far but gotta give it a little more time. |

| Loved the prologue. It reminded me of Aharen-san Is Indecipherable. The heroines are practically identical, except for a few differences. Their voice volumes, slight variations in physique, and the fact that this anime actually has an expressive protagonist, haha. Unlike Aharen-san Is Indecipherable, where both the protagonist and heroine were completely expressionless, this one at least gives us a protagonist who shows emotion, haha. Super excited for the upcoming interactions between him and his heroine. |

| @Reecey91 It's also got similar vibes to "When will Ayumu make his move", which I suppose makes sense given that's made by the same author that did Takagi-san. |

| I thought this would be playful teasing like Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san but what Oota does is straight up bullying. Replacing the content of her bottle with vinegar is not funny. |
| This is such a cute and wholesome first episode. Its slice of life feel makes it very relaxing and kept a smile on my face the whole time. I was thinking that at the start it was kinda like Aharen, but personally, I think this could be better. Can't wait to see how this progresses and how she could possibly become more expressive throughout episodes. |
